The Gnomon Workshop – Creating a Sci-Fi Sequence using Houdini Solaris

Elevate your Houdini Solaris and USD skills in this comprehensive workshop taught by Lead Lighting Artist Andreas Kjær-Jensen. Perfect for lighting artists and generalists getting started with Solaris, this workshop takes you through the entire process of creating a production-quality sci-fi sequence in Solaris.

Houdini’s Solaris is quickly becoming the industry standard for lighting in Visual Effects. Over the course of 6 hours, Andreas will guide you through creating an action-packed VFX sequence in Houdini. Artists will not only learn how to use Solaris but also gain an understanding of the underlying structure of USD and its application in real-world VFX productions today.

Andreas begins with a thorough introduction to Solaris and USD as a whole, then uses the same techniques and workflows to develop a fully fledged sequence, including shading, layout, cinematic lighting, and pipeline. By completing this workshop, artists will have learned a complete workflow for making their own sequences within Solaris.

Project files, including assets, renders, and textures, are included so subscribers can follow along step-by-step while Andreas builds the scene. You’ll walk away with advanced skills in Solaris, confidence in leveraging USD for VFX production, and a deeper understanding of industry-standard USD and Solaris workflows.

Assets used in this workshop include Action VFX’s Aerial Explosions 3D Assets pack, as well as KitBash3D’s Future Warfare Kit and Spaceships Legacy Kit.
